abstract = "Sea turtle movements are influenced and driven by marine currents.
Their occurrence is determined by prey availability and sea
temperature, with an apparent spatial association with frontal
systems. Caretta caretta movements in the Western South Atlantic
present seasonal patterns according to variability of sea surface
temperature (SST). We analyzed daily SST data and correlated it
with telemetry position of seven loggerheads incidentally captured
in pair trawl fisheries, between March 2013 and October 2014. To
validate SST data from the OSTIA system, we compared them with SST
from telemetry data. Results showed a high correlation between
measurements (r=0.88) and absolute mean difference of 0.52°C
(n=744). The monitored turtles used mainly the continental shelf
area, especially the inner portion (depth lower than 70 meters),
where approximately 65% of the telemetry positions were
registered. During the winter of 2014, almost all turtles moved
north, possibly to avoid colder waters. Only one turtle remained
in high latitudes, but moved offshore and showed a strong
correlation with the northern limit of the subtropical convergence
zone, without transposing the limit towards colder waters.
Overall, registers were close to areas classified as oceanic
fronts, with 27% directly on a frontal area (distance=0) and 42%
less than 10 km from one. We verified strong spatial correlation
between change in movement direction of sea turtles in the oceanic
region and the occurrence of frontal systems. This indicates that
the turtles possibly search for frontal areas due to food
abundance, and for aiding in their displacement.",
